CHSFL playoffs: Weather delays games again

For the second straight week, the weather has postponed the entire CHSFL football schedule.

The league moved the first round of its playoffs in the wake of Superstorm Sandy and was forced to delay it again because of Wednesday's nor'easter, which forced school closings and limited practice time, particularly for teams on Long Island and Staten Island.

The two local CHSFL teams, Iona Prep and Stepinac, will play their AAA quarterfinals next weekend. No. 5 Stepinac is schedule to visit No. 4 St. Joe's by-the-Sea on Saturday, Nov. 17. No. 2 Iona Prep will host No. 7 Xaverian, likely on either Friday, Nov. 16 or on the 17th.

The AAA semifinals will be played the following week. The championship has been scheduled for Sunday, Dec. 2. It will crunch the schedule for Stepinac, which also has its Turkey Bowl against White Plains slated for Thursday, Nov. 22. If the Crusaders win their quarterfinal game, they would also play Tuesday, Nov. 27 in the semifinals, likely against top-seeded St. Anthony's.
